Step back in time and experience history come alive! Join us for a special celebration of American freedom as we recreate a pivotal moment from our nation's past.

On Sunday, July 12, we'll gather at the historic Martin Berry House, where our day begins with a fascinating presentation by Dr. Lucia McMahon, esteemed history professor from WPU, who will share insights into this remarkable period of our nation's story.

Following Dr. McMahon's presentation, Mayor Kyle Russell, Damian Jiosi, and Albert Fenske-Williams will bring history to life with a powerful reading of the Declaration of Independence in its entirety - just as America's ancestors first heard those revolutionary words in 1776!

To complete our patriotic celebration, the Bloomingdale Cornet Band - founded in 1884 - will fill the air with stirring musical selections that have inspired generations of Americans.

The main event begins at 1 p.m., but we will throw open the doors at noon - come early to explore Pequannock's oldest home and soak in its colonial charm. Admission is free, just as America was on that historic day in 1776! While there's no cost to attend, we welcome donations and memberships that help preserve our community's precious historical treasures for future generations.

This is a joint presentation of the PTHS and the Historic District Commission. Bring your family, invite your friends, and let's celebrate the enduring spirit of American independence together!
